East Windsor Township and the Watershed Institute, in cooperation with the Americorps Watershed Ambassador Program, are co-sponsoring a stream cleanup on Saturday, April 13 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. at Etra Lake Park.  Residents are encouraged to join in the stream clean-up to help collect trash and recyclables in the area.

Mayor Mironov said “We encourage residents to participate in this worthwhile community cleanup effort at Etra Lake Park, as a terrific way to preserve our natural resources.  The purpose of this cleanup is to remove litter from our local watershed streams, helping to keep our water sources clean, and provide for a cleaner and more environmentally healthy stream.”

The Watershed Institute will provide T-shirts and refreshments.  Residents who want to participate can sign up by contacting Erin Stretz at estretz@thewatershedinstitue.org.  The Watershed Institute works with residents, municipal, county, and state leaders, and local groups on a wide variety of initiatives and actions to plan smart, grow community and preserve and protect our natural resources.
